Confirmed hours of big deal is 6pm-5am. The Jewelry channel is on the channel 6pm-2am and JCM direct is on the channel 2am-5am.
There is a MHEG that says big deal tune in at 6pm. 5am-6am still unused on this slot. Credit to Muzer for checking out the start of JCM Direct as I only managed to see the end |

I agree - it could potentially begin the start of a new era where you get a different Freeview service depending on where you live. I, for one, don't care unless a channel I'm really interested in launches somewhere I'm not

QVC Beauty has launched at LCN48 on Mux D / Arq B. It is using the former Create & Craft slot from 8am-1pm. An off air Mheg caption in pink on a white background is being shown saying "Back at 8am".
The old Create & Craft caption saying "Retune now" is still being broadcast, although this will not be seen after a retune on Mux D. Create & Craft was broadcast in the old slot today duplicated for the last time. Also the duplicate NIT & SDT entries of Channel Zero on Mux C have been removed. This will stop iDTVs detecting false new channels. However this is a false dawn because LCN45 TBA has had all its streams removed (so no caption) but its entries remain in the NIT & SDT. So all iDTVs will be reporting new channels once again. So LCN45 TBA has been removed, probably because it has had 3 months without launching. Now 103 SD channels in pre DSO England. Retune required on Mux D / Arq B. Sources: Freeview website and direct observation from daniel2015 and AngusMast.

ADULT Smile TV 3 (LCN 95) is for definite on a timeshare with Create & Craft and Big Deal. EPG for Create & Craft indicates that they would start at 5am.
ADULT Party (LCN 97) is for definite on a timeshare with Price Drop TV. At 05:00, we'll see whether it still timeshares Community. Source: Direct Observation Discussion Thread: http://forums.digitalspy.co.uk/showthread.php?t=1474618 |

Change:
All traces of channel (LCN) 45 have now been removed. This followed the removal of the MHEG (text) screen two weeks ago. [Some TV's/boxes may have stopped recognising the channel when that happened.] The channel never launched. Source: Observed by DS forum member Irish Pete and confirmed by myself. Discussion Thread: The last page of the epic channel 45 thread is here: http://forums.digitalspy.co.uk/showt...435687&page=48 where you can add your comments and thoughts. |

For future reference, this thread is usually for actual changes that have happened rather than planned future ones.

Changes on Mux C / Arq A today.
A new 9th stream has appeared carrying LCN43 GemsTV. As a result of this LCN19 Dave & LCN29 E4+1 have reduced resolution and audio mode from 720x576 and 192kbps stereo to 544x576 and 128kbps joint. A caption for LCN193 ADULT Babestn2 has appeared. The old Gems TV on Mux A / SDN is without LCN but still showing the old caption. |

DTT will only continue to get even worse than it is now. Glad I exited the Freeview system three years ago. |

QUEST has carried on broadcasting across the 1am boundary, formerly timeshared by Gems TV, so we can safely assume that QUEST is now 24/7 the same as its satellite and cable channels. They stop for unspecified teleshopping between 8am & 11am on all platforms.

Update to above: all Mux C / Arq A TV services are now running at 544x576 resolution and 128kbps joint stereo audio.
Today: First 3D non-test pictures on Freeview LCN54 BBC HD channel. Firstly recordings of the Wimbledon men's semi finals and later the women's final live. The cameras are positioned for maximum "whizzy" effect suitable for gamers and tennis fans will not be impressed IMHO. 2D viewers will see two side by side images. To watch it in 3D on Freeview requires a 3D TV set and a UK HD tuner (DVB-T2). |
